There are some applications on my computer that I don't want people to use, and I can't put a password on Windows due to certain reasons. What I need is a software that works like AppLock on Android or something, which is basically asking you for password every time you open it. Is such an application available? GiliSoft Exe Lock can lock any programs on your local computer, a person can not run the password locked programs without a password. For example, if you do don't want other persons to use your tax preparation software, personal finance or other programs you like, you simply need to run this application.

Most applications don’t come with user restrictions and this becomes a security flaw when two or more people are using the same computer (There are some applications on my computer that I don't want people to use, and I can't put a password on Windows due to certain reasons.). Password protecting the executable files is just another way you can heightened security in a shared environment.
